American Woman in the scene from American Beauty with Lester singing it in his car

Radiohead, Sigur Ros and others from Vanilla Sky

Nick Drake, The Clash and others from Royal Tenenbaums

Most of the Forrest Gump soundtrack. That movie came out when I was about 10 so those songs, like Fortunate Son, I'll always associate with scenes from that movie.

+1 "When the Man Comes Around" and "Down with the Sickness" with Dawn of the Dead
+1 "American Woman" with American Beauty

Sadly, Led Zepplin "Immigrant Song" will now always be associated with Shrek 3 for me.

Oh yeah, and not that I loved the movie, but Radiohead's "Exit Music (For a Film)" for the closing credits of the Romeo and Juliet update. Perfect song actually written for the film (check the lyrics).

"Like a Prayer" by Madonna always takes me back to the weight-lifting-with-taped-together-silverware scene in Gummo.

And last one, I promise: "High and Dry" was used perfectly in 50/50 (great movie) right after he receives his cancer diagnosis. Loved it.

Master of Puppets reminds me of Old School also. Specifically when Frank jumps out of the van and tells that lady,
IF YOU SAY ANYTHING ABOUT THIS TO ANYONE WE'LL F##KING KILL YOU!

Also, "Head Over Heels" by Tears for Fears makes me think of Donnie Darko.

first one i thought of

----------------------------------------------------------
America's destiny is not of our own choosing. We did not seek nor did we provoke an assault on our freedom and our way of life. We did not expect nor did we invite a confrontation with evil. Yet the true measure of a people's strength is how they rise to master that moment when it does arrive.

Tarantino is great at this, Pulp Fiction has a few already mentioned as does Kill Bill. Also:

"Extreme Ways" by Moby - Bourne Identity
"A Little Less Conversation" by Elvis - Oceans Eleven
